So we went in that direction this week for the purpose of gaining a. little more inforâ€" mation regarding the workshops of our village. Casuslly entering the shop owned by Mr. W. Layng we found our- selves in the presence of that land- hearted and jovial disciple of Vulcan. Mr. Lsyng, we were informed. oarrie bu a general blacksmithing and carriage business. He came to the village about ' eleVen years ago, and worked for Mr. D. Fisher as a carriage ironer for live years, at the end of which time he be- gan business on his own account. At ï¬rst his trade was somewh t limited. but it has steadily increase from the ï¬rst and Mr. Leyng now takes rank among the prosperous business men of the place. Mr. Luyng finds work for two expert workmen in addition to the labor done by himself and his opinion at present is, that the services of a. third will in a. short time be required. Until about a month ago he managed a paint shop in connection with his car- riugge works. but at that time he sold out to Messrs. Hutchins & Vundressen, two young men from the state of New York. We believe the gentlemen in question to be well skilled in the use of the paint brush and bespeak for them it fair share of patronage from at kind and liberal public. Mr. Lnyug excels in sharpening mill picks. He informed us that more than u dozen grist mills get their’picks sharp- ened by him. Mr. Luyng has made and sold fifteen corringes during this spin son. In addition to this work he has done a large repairing business. His prospects for winter work are good as he has in already eight orders for out- ters: and sleighs. The yearly business foots up to about $3000. As it niechunist we understand Mr. Laying has no superiors and few equnlsi in this district. Indeed, seVernl of his; inventions in nnwhinery hare been putâ€" x. outed by him, and he is now at worki upon a. curious and complicated piece. of mechanism which he dosignes to he ‘ used in beer barrels. etc. After the: pussnge ()f' the Scott not he purposes to; call it the “Frothing Fewest," the ‘ principle of its action being that thei liquor is driven with such force through p it that it is entirely converted into froth, 2 so that it little liquor goes a long way and the thirsty tippler is sent nwnv ; perfectly sober. ] OUR J] ORJ'IJ‘G STRULL. K A ‘m LIMP. We regret to learn thqt Mr. C. Richards. 8 Well known merchant of Irish Creek, and formerly of Frank- ville. was dangerously shot on Sunday eveuin lost. It appears thst an lit-i tempt ad been made to hurglsrizei several places in Irish Creek and vici- nity, and a perty. was organized to; hunt up the desperadoeq. A bend of eight boarded a hand our and started‘ towards Broekville, where the gang was supposed to be heading for. When near Jelly‘s Crossing they come «up to three men and on interrogating them as to their destination they replied, “To town, look out!" At the some 1'moment one ot'the pariy drew a re- volver and tired at Mr. Richards, the bull striking him in the cheek. passing through his mouth, carrying away several of his teeth and cutting his tongue about twothirds off. The other members of the gang also pl'u- seated pistols at the party (who \Yt‘l't: without weapons of any kind), and slowly hacked in the bushes and escaped. The hand our with Mr. iRichnrds on board was run down the truck as far as a Mr. Pritcherd‘s, who hitched up and drove out to the muc- udnmized road, where the services of Mr. F. H. McCren were called into requisition. who at once drone Mr. Richards into Brockville where his wounds were attended to. The duo tors report the wound an ugly one but not dangerous. The police of the town and Country were at once notiï¬ed and every effort made to capture the vil- liuns. A party suppowd to :insww the description of the men wanted ‘were found lurking nem‘ Lyn, but on ‘heing lit-ought into ilrocltville and con- ;t‘ronted by Mr. Mt'Crnm, that gentle- man declurtd they were not the men wanted.
